Berean Strong's Lexicon Lót: Lot Original Word: Λώτ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew לֺוט (Lot) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H3876 (לֺוט - Lot) Usage: In the New Testament, the name Λώτ (Lot) refers to the nephew of Abraham, a significant figure in the Old Testament. Lot is known for his association with the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and his subsequent rescue by angels before their destruction. His account is often used to illustrate themes of righteousness, judgment, and mercy. Cultural and Historical Background: Lot lived during the time of the patriarchs, a period characterized by nomadic lifestyles and familial clans. As Abraham's nephew, Lot traveled with him from Haran to Canaan. The narrative of Lot is set against the backdrop of ancient Near Eastern customs and the moral decline of cities like Sodom and Gomorrah. Lot's choice to settle in the fertile plains near these cities reflects the tension between material prosperity and spiritual integrity.
